Looking at this chart tonight ... it looks almost certain that horizontal support around 85 gives way.

MACD has crossed over headed down, and recent history would suggest that there is at least another 2 months of down action to go when that happens. Also, slow sto's indicate at least another 6 week of down action.
If a dollar panic develops, I doubt it will help the miners, because it sure didn't help in '87. But, bullion may take off like a scalded dog. Looks like GLD is a good spot to park cash.
With every passing day, the parallels of '05 with '87 seem all too real, as the infamous Trotsky has occasionally mentioned.
